Crispy Roast Pork Belly

Ingredients

    1 Pc (about 1.3 kg) Organic Boneless Pork Belly, skin scored (ask your butcher to do this)
    Olive Oil (about 2 Tbsp)
    2 Onion, peeled and roughly chopped
    4 Rib Of Celery, roughly chopped



Salt-Rub


    3 Tbsp Coarse Salt

    1 Tbsp Chili Flakes
    1 tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper
    1 tsp Caraway Seeds



Roasting Tin, lined with aluminum foil (for easy cleaning)

Method



1. In a small bowl, combine the salt rub ingredients.
2. Rub the flesh side of the pork with some salt-rub, cover loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the pork, skin side up for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
3. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350˚F. Rub some olive oil all over the skin and the remainder salt-rub.
4. Scatter the onion and celery in the prepared roasting tin, place the pork belly on top, skin side up, and roast for about 1 hour 20 minutes. Then increase the temperature to 500˚F and roast for another 25 to 30 minutes, until the crackling is crispy. Remove from the oven and let the meat rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
